Rule Title(s): Internal Combustion Engines

Date Submitted to ARB: August 24, 2009

If an Amended Rule, Date Last Amended (or Adopted): N/A

Narrative Summary of New Rule or Rule Changes: New Rule Amended Rule

Adopted Rule 3.22, Stationary Internal Combustion E ngines. The District committed in the 2008 SIP to control

emissions from stationary internal combustion engin es. Rule 3.22 controls NOx, ROG and CO emissions f rom

these engines. The rule applies solely to prime sta tionary engines rated at or above 50 horsepower. En gines which

are considered portable or are used in emergencies are exempt from this rule. The rule requires the en gines to

undergo a source test or equivalent emission certif ication method to guarantee the engine meets the re quired

emission limits.

Pollutant(s) Regulated by the Rule (Check): ROG (NOx) SO2

II. EFFECT ON EMISSIONS

Complete this section ONLY for rules that, when imp lemented, will result in quantifiable changes in em issions. Attach reference(s) for emission

factor(s) and other information. Attach calculatio n sheet showing how the emission information provid ed below was determined

.

Net Effect on Emissions: Increase Decrease N/A

Emission Reduction Commitment in SIP for this Sourc e Category: 0.0045 tons/day

Inventory Year Used to Calculate Changes in Emissio ns: 2002 Area Affected: Sutter County

Future Year Control Profile Estimate (Provide information on as many years as possible) :

There are currently no prime stationary engines loc ated in the non-attainment area of Sutter county, s o there is no

immediate emission reduction. The District had one engine operating back in 2008, but that source has been shut down

and removed before the District adopted Rule 3.22. The new rule is expected to prevent further degrada tion of the air

quality attainment status in the Sacramento Federal Non-Attainment Area by imposing stricter emission standards on any

new stationary engines in the area.CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD

Baseline Inventory in the SIP for the Control Measu re: 0.020 tons/day

Emissions Reduction Commitment in the SIP for the C ontrol Measure: 0.0045 tons/day

Revised Baseline Inventory (if any): 0 tons/day

5/1/2002 VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN

No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment

Discussion: The new rule is expected to prevent fu rther degradation of the air quality attainment sta tus in the Sacramento

Federal Non-Attainment Area. There are currently no prime stationary engines located in the non-attain ment area of Sutter

county, so there is no immediate emission reduction . However, this rule will guarantee that any new pr ojects in the area

will be subject to stricter emission standards.
